How Many Snow Days Does Loudoun County Have?

I have gotten the question a lot lately: How many snow days does Loudoun County have in their school calendar? It does seem like they are taking an awful lot of days off. As a mom who gets stuck at home with the little ones quite often when there's a snow day, I feel your pain!

The answer is 15; LCPS has 15 days built into their calendar. Therefore they will not have to alter their schedule or change graduation dates based on weather closings. The LCPS system has had this schedule in place since 1990.

They have this many snow days, not because they are actually scheduled for 15 more days than is required, but because of the length of the school days. So, they accumulate enough 'hours' to allow them to take 15 snow days. I don't know that Loudoun has ever used that many snow days in a year.

For the 2009-2010 school year, AFTER missing the entire week of February 8th through 12th because of weather closings, they will have used 10 snow days, I believe. Even if the county extends beyond the 15 snow days that are built in, under current regulations there would be no requirements for those additional days to be 'made up'.

Thanks for this question... and please don't hesitate to contact me regarding your LoCo questions.
I am happy to help!

As a fellow mom who is also working to dig up ideas on how to keep my kids occupied without driving me crazy on snow days, I have created several recent posts on creative kid friendly recipes and family activities for snow days, as well as important safety tips and more - so check out the blog. It's here for you, and so am I. Let me know what other LoCo info you need.

We're not talking about a bit of middle-aged spread here, either, at least not in the case of those contemplating one of the various weight-reduction surgeries that Sunderland Royal Hospital now specialises in. Deborah, readying herself for gastric sleeve surgery that would remove seven-eighths of her stomach permanently, was hoping to lose the weight of a full-grown man. And Terry Gardner who weighed 47 stone when the filming began and could no longer fit into his own bathroom appeared to be hellbent on finding out just how big you can grow a man to be.

Don't expect it to work if other cars are in the way either.
